‘Rudy was Cussing!’ Anthony Edwards On Rudy Gobert And New Bank Shot In Wolves Win Against Clippers



‘Rudy was Cussing!’ Anthony Edwards On Rudy Gobert And New Bank Shot In Wolves Win Against Clippers

Came out kind L them in the them in the third quar it’s been a theme for you guys all years for for you guys what is what has kind of been the key to being so successful at that point in the games for this season in the third in the third

Yeah um we get cussed out in here n um I think as a group we came out like um with one with one thing in mind is to get stops and I think um that lay it to us being efficient offensively what’s kind of the dialogue like in

Halim is there a lot of talking among yourselves talking with the coach oh yeah I mean before the coaches get in here we pretty much Talk Amongst ourselves yeah for for you guys most of the year when teams have gone smaller you guys have done also a good job of

Staying big and and using that to your advantage uh what have been the keys to getting Rudy and C going when teams are small yeah they went small and we punished them down low I think cat did a great job of punishing them tonight um that led to us getting that lead and

Rudy just pound him on offensive glass defensively a lot of teams had trouble limiting these guys what was the key for for you guys tonight um I mean we got Jaden and Rudy so pretty much let Jaden do what he do and send everything down

At a big Rule and like I don’t know how those two guys not up for Defensive Player of the Year at least all defensive first team how they been playing starting the campaign yeah for sure I think it’s time so who doing the C who’s what who’s doing the cussing um

Rudy English or French um English yeah we don’t know French and I feel like if you come out with a rap album we got to call it off the glass cuz you’ve been shooting that off the glass shot all the time and I don’t think people realize that you

Really work on that bro talk about the off the glass work that you be putting into on the offseason um yeah I might I might have a whole workout where um like me and seans might work out in the morning and he might leave cuz he got to

Report back to Minnesota and me and Kier might the second third workout of the day might be all Bank shots so um yeah I I take that real I take pride in that um I want to bring it back um like Tim Duncan was super good at it and um so I

Want to bring it back for sure I got to ask you um a player I ain’t going to name his name from Team USA he said one thing that stuck out is that he would go to the gym early in the morning and he said he would see you in there lowkey

And then you act like you were at at breakfast or something like you weren’t in the gym early and he said I always stuck out to him talk about that bro like being in the gym one of the first in the gym always um so honestly at

First I was kind of just going with the flow like um you know working out when I could when they would give us a gym and then um I didn’t know that we could work out early like I didn’t know until I seen one of the one of my teammates

Doing it and I’m like oh we can get the gym early I asked one of the coaches they were like yeah so I started getting the gym early but that’s just that’s just me I always love to workout let it get better every day so that’s just me

And how were you able to to Really shrink the floor for them um when when they went small how did we what you guys shrink the floor you guys were everywhere to oh I mean um I don’t know man um I don’t know finy did a great job tonight I don’t

Know that you didn’t miss a single shot when you were shooting three I know you didn’t have a lot of Threes to but made all your twos you got thee made all your free throws and it felt like this third quarter was like third quarter minutes so the last month against Clippers what

Is it about coming out in the third where you impos your will where you probably didn’t do it the same way early in the game um just seeing how defense is guarding me um whole first half they was putting two on me the entire game um loading up and I was dribbling dribbling

Dribbling allowing them to get in the gaps and um like I said uh FY came here and uh he showed Clips he was like a you can go fast and they can’t load up on you like when you catch play after catch like more yeah so I was trying to you

Know get in get out in transition and play after catch more and it helped me how did that help car yeah I mean um they put they I don’t know why teams put two on me um because cat is the best offensive player we got so if you put

Two on me c going to have a field night so um I’m all for how does a how does a finch you like it when you Bank threes in front of him um I think he’s a fan of it he he might not say it but I think

He’s a fan of it so yeah yeah yeah inside I think he likes it yeah

  1. I never played basketball growing up (it shares its season with hockey, which i grew up with in a town known specifically for its hockey) but i could always hit 3s between a 30-35% clip. Now, that's not great for an nba player, but really good for someone who doesn't play lol i think my success came from learning how to use the glass. I had basketball players asking me how i could so reliably get a bounce but to me the belt buckle always felt like an easier target than the hoop itself so it came down to getting the glass bounce right. I was also shooting line drives cause i didn't know any better, but that angle probably works better for glass anyways

  2. I'm a huge Kawhi fan but I like Anthony Edwards…….seems like a big kid…..I say that respectfully……just a cool kat!
